In a statement titled “Lifting of Suspension of Acting Zonal Secretary of the PDP South South Zone George Turnah By the Bayelsa State Working Committee” and signed by the zonal organizing secretary, Arch. Ekom Nsed Akonjom, he said that the decision was reached during a meeting held on February 18, 2025, after reviewing Turnah’s appeal.

However, a High Court sitting in Yenagoa, on Tuesday issued a restraining order stopping the newly appointed Acting Zonal Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Barr. George Turnah from acting in his new office.

The Court in suit number BYHC/YHC/CV/73/2025, also granted an interim injunction restraining Turnah from participating and attending any meeting or carrying out any function as a member or officer of the Peoples Democratic Party pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice.

According to Arch. Akonjom, the committee found merit in Turnah’s appeal after carefully examining the party’s constitution, adding that the relief he had sought has been granted, and his suspension officially set aside.
